Deck the Hall — Lyrics
1.
Deck the hall with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la, la, la.
'Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la, la, la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la, la, la.
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la, la, la.

About Deck the Hall
Deck the Hall is a traditional Welsh melody, most famously set to English lyrics for the Christmas season. This arrangement for SATB choir captures the infectious joy of the season, inviting singers and listeners alike to embrace the festive spirit. The text encourages donning gay apparel, singing Yuletide carols, and celebrating the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new. The familiar refrain, 'Fa la la la, la la, la, la,' adds a playful and memorable element, making this a popular choice for seasonal programming. Its cheerful and engaging nature is sure to bring a sense of merriment to any concert.
